MY ANGELS

Do angels constantly come and go?
Do they dance around, or walk on tiptoe?
Do they always soothe us, when we cry?
Do they encourage, when we don't try?
There must be several taking care of me,
For I'm a handful.....most would agree!
Do they get weary, from my ups and downs?
Chasing me everywhere, all over town?
Trying to keep count, when I'm so forgetful,
Wiping my tears, during periods of regretful!
Teaching me, to ignore human disrespect!
Making me in tune and knowing what to expect!
By now, they've tried everything, but still know,
That in spite of their efforts, we've a long way to go,
Before I'll be ready to face Judgment Day,
If I had to go soon....GOD might say, "No way!"
I'll need extra angels, to vouch for me,
I'll need them to say, that it is plain to see,
I am trying, although it's taking time,
For me to walk faithfully along,
  GOD's HOLY STRAIGHT LINE!
My mind is forgetful! I have two, left feet!
Sometimes, I'm not very obedient or neat!
But, when I reach for The Holy Book,
All of my angels take another close look!
They gather around, for they love to see,
That I'm anxious to learn,
About what GOD wants me to be!
